During the Spring Festival, the pen may be closed for several days.

……..

After worshipping the mountain of Shen Zheng, the prime minister of the Four Ming Dynasty, and obtaining the approval of the big tiger of Zhejiang, Wei Liangchen did not stay in Ningbo to continue the matter, but secretly returned to Zhoushan, and ordered the navy to return to Wusong on the same day.

This is also at Shen's consistent request, and if he wants to reach cooperation, Wei Liangchen can no longer be aggressive. Moreover, this matter is very big, and it cannot be determined in a month or two, and the New Year is about to end, and the good ministers must also rush back to the Special Administrative Region, first, to reward the soldiers so that they can have a fat year. The second is to implement the previous plan.

Seven days later, the fleet appeared in Chongming, and Wei Liangchen was supposed to lead his troops directly back to Wusong Port, but a letter made him change his mind and ordered the first part of the navy to return to the port, and the rest to Liujiagang in Taicang upstream.

Liujiagang was the port of departure for the fleet of Zheng He, the eunuch of the Three Treasures, and the shipping grain of the pseudo-Yuan Dynasty also went to sea from there, which was not extremely prosperous in that year. However, the present is no longer the glory of the past, and during the Jiajing period, due to the invasion of the Japanese invaders, the destruction was exhausted, and the port was even more shallow, so the large and small merchant ships basically no longer went to Liujiagang when they went to sea, but went to Wusong.

After the navy entered Taicang Port, Wei Liangchen did not go ashore, but ordered someone to post his name to the Taicang County Ya, and ordered the county king and the following officials to come to Liujiagang to listen to the questioning of the maritime eunuchs of Admiral Hou.

The king of Taicang Zhixian is a jinshi in the thirty-fourth year of Wanli, and his achievements as an official are quite remarkable.

When Wei Liangchen's envoy arrived at the county office, Wang Guoguo was trying the case.

When the envoy saw that the county was trying the case, he was not disturbed and waited patiently. It wasn't until the magistrate gave the verdict after the trial and was about to return to the Houya for dinner, that the envoy stepped forward to reveal his identity and handed over the name sticker of the Admiral Maritime Eunuch Wei Gonggong to explain his intention.

Wang Guoguo immediately sneered, sneered at what the envoy said, and Yu Xiancheng and Zhu Bo said: "This official is appointed by the emperor, he is a nobleman, what qualifications does he have to summon me?" ”

The messenger was a big old man, and he didn't know what the nobleman was referring to, so he was stunned for a moment.

Seeing this, the king laughed even more, and then asked the officials to drive the messenger out.

……….

"What do you mean by being a nobleman?"

Gonggong Wei is also confused, he understands the "nobleman", the emperor's concubine, but what is the "nobleman"?

The left and right are all coarse, and they don't know the big characters, and who can answer questions for Grandpa Wei.

"Could it be that this Taicang County is scolding our family for being a woman?" Gonggong Wei guessed that there was not much difference between this "nobleman" and a "ladyboy" anyway.

In the end, Ruan Dacheng couldn't help but smile and bluntly answered the question for Gonggong Wei, saying that this "nobleman" specifically refers to the eunuchs in the palace.

"Oh."

Gonggong Wei nodded, then chuckled, and said to the left and right: "I don't want Taicang County to be another strong order." ”

Ruan Dacheng didn't say anything, thinking that you Eunuch Wei didn't go back to your home, so you must not have come to Taicang to praise people in Taicang County. Thinking of this Wei eunuch's temperament, he secretly said that Taicang County was afraid that he would be unlucky.

No, Father-in-law Wei was not angry because Taicang County did not accept his post, but asked someone to hold the post again and let Taicang County come to Liujiagang to listen to the Hou's inquiry, and there was one more, that is, Taicang County would register all kinds of money and grain in the county, and bring it with him for Father-in-law Wei to check. The father-in-law particularly emphasized that the registration of money and grain should be completed within one day.

This request made Ruan Dacheng stunned, and he didn't understand what this Wei eunuch wanted to do to check other people's money and grain. Taicang County knew that it was Eunuch Wei who deliberately made things difficult for him, and wanted to find him from the money and grain account books in his county.

Taicang County really guessed correctly, Father-in-law Wei just wanted to check his accounts.

The reason is that Taicang County, a close neighbor, is really excessive, and it dares to really cut off all communication with Wusong, so that no grain of rice enters Wusong, so that the materials and food in the special zone are very tight.

This is about to be the New Year, and no matter what, the soldiers have been busy for more than half a year, and my father-in-law will prepare some New Year's goods for rewards anyway.

If everyone is the same as you in Taicang County, what reward will your father-in-law get, and what will you take for the New Year.

If you kill a chicken, you have to kill a monkey, and your father-in-law will not find trouble with your Suzhou Mansion first, and will talk about your Taicang County.

But Taicang County really didn't give his father-in-law any face, and the king relied on the governor and the prefect to support him, and he didn't take Father-in-law Wei in his eyes at all, and after receiving Father-in-law Wei's post again, he scolded the messenger on the spot, and then wrote a letter to scold Father-in-law Wei.

In the letter, you Wei eunuch is just a milky boy who has not dried up, relying on the favor letter to go south to Hu Wei, causing the people's resentment to boil, I don't know how to introspect, and still act recklessly, I can know how to write dead words.

He also said that he Wang is an official of the imperial court, a jinshi and a younger brother, and now he is ordered to know Taicang County, why do you do something that you don't do as a child. And Taicang has its own special officials for money and grain, how can it make a book in one day. Moreover, it is the official inquiry, and there are also political and inspection officials, what does it matter to you as a eunuch.

At the end of the letter, he said sarcastically: "The nobles are domestic officials, and they don't know the imperial court system, so they probably don't know the division of labor among foreign officials, right?" The nobleman is called the admiral eunuch, who thinks he is glorious, but he is a slave of the internal official after all. ”

In the end, Wang Guoguo even called the Wei eunuch by his name, what kind of law and discipline? Let me see that you are young and ignorant, and do not delve into you. If you Wei eunuch still don't know how to advance or retreat, he Wang will fight the seal of this county, and swear not to stand with you, if you have the courage, you will openly trample on the law, and take him as a court official.

"Is this going to make our family hard?"

The father-in-law took the letter from Taicang County in his hand and read it repeatedly, and finally threw it to Ruan Dacheng. After Ruan Dacheng finished reading, he was already full of admiration in his heart: Taicang County is a model for my scholars!

"Since Taicang County has this requirement, how can our family not fulfill him."

Gonggong Wei smiled and waved his hand, and Yu Cao Wenyao said, "You go and bring people, no one is missing." ”

"The last general obeys!"

Cao Wenyao bowed and retreated, and then led a battalion of infantry straight to Taicang City, openly broke into the county government, and said that he was ordered by the Admiral's maritime ministers to take out the treasury silver to pay for the money and grain.

Looking at these tiger and wolf soldiers with swords and guns, Wang Guo was furious and said angrily: "Forgive me!" ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the sword and stick together, and several scabbards smashed towards him.

After ordering his subordinates to beat the magistrate fiercely, Cao Wenyao forced the officials to take them to the treasury, split the warehouse door with a knife, and forcibly took away more than 16,000 taels of silver stored in Taicang, and then escorted all 25 people from the county magistrate and the county government to Liujiagang.

The news soon spread to Suzhou, and the prefect Zhou Zhou Wu was also furious when he learned of this, and went to Fuya overnight to ask to see the governor.

That night, there was an official letter from the governor of Yingtian and the envoy of the prefect of Suzhou to Liujiagang, ordering the admiral and the ministers of the maritime affairs to return the officials of Taicang County.

"It's okay to release people, 10,000 taels per person."

Gonggong Wei lazily waved his hand at the envoy of the prefect of Suzhou, then glanced back at the people of Taicang County, and said coldly: "You are very valuable." ”
